00:37Were the gifts you gave

00:48To the dark and the endless skies, my love

00:59To the dark and the endless skies

01:10And the first time ever I kissed your mouth

01:25I felt the earth move in my hand

01:43Like the trembling heart

01:50Of a captive earth

01:58That was there

02:05That my command, my love

02:11It was there
